Autumn: Gentle Storm

Upon a clear and frosty autumn morn

I found myself caught in a gentle storm

No lightening flashed across the azure sky

No thunder rolled and all the ground was dry

No rain or snow, no whisper of a breeze

And yet a shower fell beneath the trees

 

Swooping and swirling

Drifting and diving

Wafting and weaving

Floating and flirting

 

And while the leaf-drops all around me fell

I stood entranced by nature’s silent spell

Kaleidoscopic colours filled the air

And mesmerised all I could do was stare

A light-and-motion dance that left me high

A tempest raging quiet as a sigh
